Good Evening,
Elizabeth Foss describes how she orders 11 x 14 inch prints from the National Gallery (I believe 10 dollars for 6 prints???) and I'm hoping someone can provide me with the direct link by which to do this. I searched and searched and can't seem to locate where to buy prints!!!! It's probably right in front of my nose...
Thank you so much.
Karen

I saw the same thing in Elizabeth's book. I emailed them at the link above and they sent me a list of available prints. You can then mail or fax in your order

Ok, another question. I don't have Elizabeth's book right in front of me, but I'm pretty sure she wrote that she got 6 prints for 10 dollars. I just called the number and the woman said the prints were 5 dollars each. But, she also said she was subbing this week for the person that usually works in the shop.
Can anyone clarify? 10 dollars vs 30 dollars every six weeks is quite different...
Again, many thanks :0)

I believe the prices are from when the book was written, but that was a while ago now. When we go to the NGA, we pay about $10 per print.

I agree, and I may be thinking of a larger size? We just don't buy them very often. Each child picks one each time we go, but that's only 2-3 times a year. We use Childsized Masterpieces most of the time.

All right, I've just discovered that Staples prints 11X 14 for 1.98 each. That's not quite so bad.
So, does anyone know a site that I can "take off" art prints in order to send them to Staples as an attachment so that they can print them? I don't know how to do this.
Oh, and they'll print on cardstock, or glossy print paper for the same price. Which would be better to use?
Thank you so much!!!!
